NO I don't wont to downgrade !

I'm using 1.30EU and when it works its very god.
Yes there are SOME bugs but if it will be fixed, it will be a very god router.

I think the problem  is read/write to memory problem. If its hang for a reason
the solution is to wait some minutes and its working again.

With the exception of SharePort not working (does it work for anyone at all on a continous basis [let alone for 5 minutes]?), I've had no problems with 1.32NA.  One thing I'll say is that after upgrading to 1.32NA, the router definitely did not want to take my 1.21 settings.  It keep crashing every few seconds.  After I reset the router to default settings and reinstalled 1.32NA (over ethernet), its been working like a champ.  It was a PITA to redo all my settings, but I've come to accept that issues pop up when tinkering with this kind of stuff.  FTR, I do have DNS relay and DHCP enabled.

HI

As I sad before, test this:

MAC-adrerss for Shareport USB is: 00:00:00:00:0a:00
Use MAC to IP "DHCP Reservation" to get the same IP every time you connect.
I have used this that way and it work for me.

I need a downgrade.  I was running 1.11 ever since it came out.  Then 2 weeks ago I upgraded to 1.32NA, and my router has already crashed twice since then, dropping the internet connection and also closing port 80, so that a hard reboot was my only option.  It NEVER crashed when it was on 1.11.  This used to be a really awesome router and I loved it.  I feel like such a tool for upgrading.  Lesson learned.

All you hackers and programmers out there, if you're looking to test a downgrade method but are afraid to test it on your own router, I will test it on mine.  I don't care if I brick my router, because as far as I'm concerned, with weekly crashes it's already a brick, and I'll happily run out and buy a Linksys.  I'll be doing exactly that anyway if I can't get my router stable very soon.  I downgraded to 1.31 today, so give me a bit of time to see if that's any better, but from what I've been reading all over the net, I don't have high hopes.  I have the A1 version from when the DIR-655 first came out (green LEDs).

I'm a sys admin and programmer, so I know perfectly well that it's difficult to write code that has no bugs in it.  But it's definitely 100% impossible to write decent code without a QA process, and it's painfully obvious that satisfactory QA just did not happen with the 1.3x firmware.
